Boston, MA (PRWEB) October 26, 2004 -- "Diving The Seamount", Tom Rapko's
scuba diving bestseller, roared ahead on Amazon.com's sales list last week
jumping over 600,000 places.
Along with the sales jump, the novel also
garnered a key review from Grady Harp, an Amazon.com Top 50 Reviewer, who
described the novel as "An Adventure For The Mind, The Spirit, And The
Soul."
La Paz, Mexico serves as the backdrop for this novel, a sweeping
tale part carpe diem, part life philosophy that questions the wisdom of pursuing
a material life at the expense of freedom.
Through the use of robust
character development and a consistent philosophical undercurrent "Diving the
Seamount" weaves seemingly dissimilar lives together and leads the reader to a
wholly compelling conclusion.
What, you might ask, is a seamount anyway?
A seamount is an underwater volcano that plateaus below the surface of the sea.
Characteristically scuba divers encounter a rich variety of sea life in these
areas--dense hard coral, prolific schools of fish and pelagics like hammerhead
sharks. All of these animals have an affinity for seamounts.
Given the
propensity of describing life success in terms of material acquisition, "Diving
The Seamount" offers a refreshing view on the importance of personal character
development and the value of simplicity. And with the holiday season fast
approaching "Diving The Seamount" makes a superb choice for the adventurer in
your life!
"Diving the Seamount", ISBN 0595320856, is available in soft
cover for $11.95 at all major book retailers including Amazon.com,
BarnesAndNoble.com, and iUniverse.com
